October 11, 2011 02:49 AM PDT
As most of you will know by now, David Croft, co-writer, co-creator and producer of Dad's Army, has died at the age of 89. He died at his holiday home in Portugal on the 27th September. His family called him a "truly great man" in a statement. A statement on Croft's website read: 'The family of comedy legend David Croft OBE are sad to report that David died peacefully in his sleep at his house in Portugal earlier today. He was a truly great man, who will be missed by all who had the great fortune of knowing and loving him'. This is our brief tribute to David.

Welcome to another episode of the Dad’s Army podcast. This time out, we take a look at A Man of Action, an episode broadcast in late 1974. With Mainwaring imposing martial law on Walmington after a bomb severs vital communications, the residents pull together and respond by acquiescing to a string of measures put in place to keep the community going. Looters are threatened with being shot! Join James and Oliver as they look at this episode in the light of the unrest seen across the UK a few weeks ago and compare how communities separated by fifty years respond differently to hardship. And how precisely did Pike get his head out of the park gate?! These, and other burning issue are discussed in this month’s episode!

Join James and Oliver and they take a nostalgic look back at one of the most highly regarded episodes of Dad’s Army - the season 4 epic, Mum's Army. Was Mrs Grey a warm, kind hearted lady who fell in love with our beloved Captain, or a manipulative harlot who acted in a way responsible for Mainwaring taking his eye off the ball?! Join us as we find out! We also read through a couple of messages you kind listeners have sent us, and review some suggestions made as to what Oliver should entitle his new documentary about our favourite Vicar, Mr Frank Williams. You’ll be surprised by some of the titles pitched to us..... As alsways, enjoy the show and send your feedback to us at james@dadsarmypodcast.com or oliver@dadsarmypodcast.com.

March 28, 2011 06:51 AM PDT
Well, this is it. It's finally here! A thorough (non-medical!) examination of Lance Corporal Jones. This episode is the much anticipated (and very delayed) Trial of Lance Corporal Jones. Yes, Jack Jones is in the dock and charged with extreme silliness. We also have a couple of expert witnesses in the form of a couple of actors who have worked alongside Clive Dunn and are only too keen to make their voices heard on the subject! Tune in and let us know what you think! Pass verdict on our favourite butcher by emailing us at james@dadsarmypodcast.com or oliver@dadsarmypodcast.com. Hope you enjoy this slightly different episode of the Dad’s Army podcast. Next Page |
